GREAT VIDEO ON BIG SCREEN.. THANK'S!!!!
This is fascinating history, I come from County Durham in the UK, where my family run a farrier blacksmiths business in the 1800s, most of the male family members were involved in this business, by the 1950 there was just one family member left in the business, which eventually closed when he died, this is a side of the automotive industry history that you never hear, about, thank you
Superb images! And thanks for not forcing artificial "nostalgia" for periods that nobody alive today experienced.
I love old cars.
Excellent work:)
Thanks a lot!
Thank you.
Thank you what a great video 🎥🍿,, we like seeing the scenes of California where we live and the downtown area I thought only a car like this was for the rich 🤑.. going to the mountains was beautiful in those days.. still seeing these cars at the car shows these days brings back times.. The bathing beauties modeling these cars was a great seen the see👀👀,. Again thank you..

Go
Love old cars and stuff.
Franz Burger in 1885 in Sterling, Illinois "is" the inventor of the liquid fuel gasoline carburetor who was hired by Charter gas engine company. Charter six "traction engines" was on the job in South Dakota, working as the world's FIRST liquid-fueled, internal combustion farm tractor. Built in Sterling, Illinois, in 1887, the Charter quietly made history. John Charter and Franz Burger were from Germany. The gasoline carburetor was born in Sterling, Illinois. Go to FARM COLLECTOR magazine, June 2014. By Dr. Graeme R. Quick, Queensland, Australia.
I think my dad saw some of these first cars....He was born in 1900 and passed away in October 2010.
Traffic was chaotic back then: I love Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Corvette, Dodge Viper and many more; Aston Martin, Pagani Zonda, Mc Laren...
2024...Fantastic! This is helping me understand the world by parents were growing up in. Pop was born in 1911, and Mom in 1922. They've already passed away years ago. I love looking at historic photos and trying to figure out which year the automobiles are from on the streets, in context to 1911 & 1922. I am kind of stunned when I think about the wooden spoked wheels, and semi open-sided seating. And that windshield wipers weren't on every vehicle, or side windows, and interior heating hadn't been invented yet. Early cars had springs, but not shocks.
Hey @5:06 that might be Clyde Barrow carving Bonnie Parkers name into that tree. Wouldn't that be something?❤❤😉
dude good job
keep going
Thanks ✌
Absolutely love this it's tastic. You were showing a little bit more from Detroit I was just thinking maybe you are from Detroit I don't know I have to be in Cleveland, But I'm telling you those are just fantastic pictures from around America 100 years ago!
@ 4:17-4:31 "Sutro Heights, San Francisco 1920's" appears to be around 1933-4
Thank you so much! (just find this chanel). Love it!
What a mess on the streets. We surely missed out on the opportunity to have better mass transit, because much of the planning went to automobiles.
The one thing that I can truly understand and fully appreciate, is the level of personal freedom, adventure and massive amounts of businesses that resulted, because of cheap, personal, greatly reliable transportation. We can see this actually trending in reverse, as car repo's are at 30,000 a day and the magnitude of immobility, homelessness and business closures are statistically exploding on the charts.
With all the experience that Ford has had in building cars, you’d think that they could do a better job building their present cars.
“they do. If you buy a Ford truck or car, the transmission will last 300k plus. Now, if you buy a GM brand you’re in trouble.” Scotty Kilmer
2007 Chevy truck 4x4. Only thing I’ve replaced is the fuel pump and it cost $40. 200,000 miles so far. Oh and the battery,forgot that one.
Yeah modern cars haven’t become more complex at all 😂 The same argument could be made about Toyota DPF’s or the Hemi ‘tick’ or a Mercedes complicated electronics
ive owned almost all the american brands and all i have to say is if you follow the maintenance schedule at least 95% of anything you buy today is reliable, if it wasnt they would get killed by reviews in a couple years, especially if its a utilitarian car,
🤣
Great collection of photos. Interesting you started out with a little town of Winfield Kansas. Or the area I guess it's not a small town but compared with Detroit New York Washington d.c. San Francisco the other big cities it's a small town. I think I've been through there twice because it's really a decent area to hunt for old cars. But other than that I found it interesting that great-grandmother's who have passed on by now a hundred years ago or posing and their bathing suits next to a new cars a Time. I guess that's always been a thing but usually I think of more in the sixties and seventies. Interesting thanks again for putting it together
good video
Thanks!
Where do the photos come from (museums, private collections, digital archives)? Was it a member of your team who colorized them, or did someone else do that?
Period music would be a nice improvement.
Anyone watching this should consider perspective of history to their own age being now. My own grandparents for instance were born one in 1895 and the other three all before 1903 and all shared using horses and wagons. My parents 1926 and 1930 and me mid 1950's. Three generation in other words. Now since me to my grand children born after 2015 two more and what a journey of change. Hopefully we get back to the more focused to One nation with change rather than the destructive empire globalist crap that the majority became trapped into from back starting when my grandparents where alive.
Great pix! Great narrative! And ignore the music haters...I thought it worked just fine! 🎼🎵🎶🎺🎷🥁😁
Very good.. great trip back.. introduce yourself at the beginning of each video plz
1930: already too many cars. 🙂
Thanks. I own a 1931 Ford.
I wish they still made cars like this (that weren't death traps)
The problem is that ALL cars from that era WERE, in fact, death traps.
Hmm, I wonder when the first motor vehicle-related death occurred?🚗⚰
Thank you for your excellent colorized historic photo series. For future videos, please include the fact that the public was charged the bill of auto infrastructure and lending practices that were guaranteed to fail, but was not informed of the trade-offs they were paying for. The trade-offs were that walking, cycling, transit, and mobility freedom would get worse while driving got better...and the lives of 30,000 people (friends and loved ones, the majority of them innocent) would be sacrificed every year. And please further emphasize that the popularity of auto ownership was made possible only by banks lending money they didn't have, which was the root cause of the depression. The whole thing was a shell game and house of cards. Hide the true costs, live large while you can, let the obscenely rich be the winners and the middle class and working class (the 99%) be the losers. If you wished for the deaths of thousands of children and to cap it off with a depression, then widespread adoption of the automobile in combination with lending practices guaranteed to fail was the way to go. If Americans were told the whole truth from the start by industrialists and politicians (mostly socialists/fascists disguised as capitalists - definitely not patriotic), they would have chosen a different path. Please don't tell me they didn't see it coming. The people of the roaring 20's had long since learned the lessons they need to learn to do the right thing. Again, there were winners and losers. Mostly losers. After a century of socializing auto dependence, the war against walking, cycling, transit (competitors of cars) and independent living (children and seniors), America is just now becoming aware of the whole truth, the pros and cons of the massive tax-payer sponsored (socialized) failure that was mass motoring combined with suburbia.
mr. Angelo? don salieri sends his regards

Thank you for properly saying "farther" (distance), instead of "further", as almost everybody incorrectly uses the term.
Thanx, Ron, but don't we have more important shit to worry about?
@@brucestaples4510 That we do, Bruce, but it is an error in English language that is repeated 99% of its use. I'm old (74), and when I went to school (when we rode on the backs of dinosaurs to school- uphill both ways), they taught ENGLISH.. and when you made errors, you were corrected, and you LEARNED. Those lessons stuck with us. Now days, young people learn very little in school and it shows. I don't correct those who use the word incorrectly, but I do like to call out those who do. After all, it was important enough for your comment to me.
@@RonRay We couldn't afford me a dinosaur (do you know how much those buggers eat?), and MY two-way-uphill trek to school was sometimes snow-covered. I too have completed 74 trips around the sun, so I get your drift. The thing is that usage sometimes trumps (yuk! gotta find a synonym for that last word) the dictionary, so brand names become nouns, nouns become verbs, etc. Anyway, I'VE been called grammar police when I point out to someone that because of spelling, punctuation, and grammatical errors, I couldn't understand their meaning (head up their ass aside😉)...and wear the badge proudly. Take care.✌
In the first minute you see the need for the invention of the traffic light. Early in the 1900’s Cleveland had more car manufacturers than Detroit.
Cars looked better then. Now they're just jelly beans.
Better roads like the old days
That 1920's Detroit cop at 2:40 looks like he had one too many🍩🍩.😄
Interesting video. But I had to mute the sound and turn on closed caption because the background music sucks.
What kinda music do you want to hear?
Are all these images AI upscaled? Do you have sources listed for any of these photos? I just want to say: it's very dangerous to call yourself a history channel and not disclose the fact that you're using AI to "enhance" the images. I don't want to assume that these images are AI generated, but I highly recommend against using AI with anything related to history. Especially with all the old people who don't know any better when watching these videos.
That's a lot of work to colorize each of the photos!
The music tracks are not authentic to the times the photos show do more homework sonny.
Do you also scream at kiddies, demanding that they "get off your lawn" ? Lighten up, grandpa.
@7:11 The plate says: Ohio - 1924, not 1914!
Can do without the swingjazz. Couldn't watch for long.
You have no soul. 😕
A shit load of Midjourney in there.
And it has become a pain in everyone’s ass and has been widely regarded as a bad decision.
Sie haben ein altes, ramponiertes Auto, das mit Rost, Beulen und anderen Abnutzungsspuren übersät ist, man könnte es auch einen Schläger nennen. Aber wenn man es mit dem richtigen New Yorker Slang beschreiben möchte, würde man dieses Stück Schrott „Hooptie“ nennen. Beispiel: Der Hooptie meines alten Herrn nimmt seit sechs Jahren Platz in der Garage ein.
Everybody with those-days knowledge is dead, today's factory is run by computer-wired no-good youngsters, arrogant from here to eternity, that have only OND objective: High pays, no responsibility.

I don’t need colorization!
It was a mess back then ,just like it is today,but worse?😂
